Thanks for your patience!

 

Well done guys, relly glad to see who won! Thanks again to asus and bit-tech for putting on all this!

 

Thanks for that! Gave my mini speech over on the other... little shell shocked at the minute

'grats to everyone. It was really fun to meet everyone at the event (Though none of you will remember me now!)

Looking forward to doing other cool things this year and staying an active part of the community here at Bit Tech

 

Looking forward to these cool things you speak of why not post a pic of yourself to jog our memories eh...... So glad we got the soundcard as you well know VK any clues to the model? and will you be needing any details from us?

Thanks once again to Asus and Bit-tech its been a really good compo and I admit ive become something of an Asus fan now (already a Bit-tech fan).

Well done Andy well deserved, looking forward to the write up and pics of your trip.

 

I hope its better than my current sound card, then I won't need any PCI slots! Huzzah!

 

It's been a great time and I'm glad to win another prize. Unfortunately I'm worried I able to use the Xonar card on my rig due to the only other PCIexpress slot positioned above the x16 slot and might not be enough room. Maybe ASUS forgot I won the tiny AMD motherboard

Would it be possible for somebody to either let me know in this thread or via PM exactly what the card model is, so I can work out the dimensions and see if it will fit. Thank you

As you can see, there are quite a few!

 

Yeah, a few! It would be nice if it's not one of the cheapo ones

wish it was a video card though. More useful. But I'm not complaining

 

HDAV 1.3 Deluxe please (it would match the announced £200 prize value..)

 

^this

 

Well, the final say so is out of my hands - Though I did nudge them in the direction of the Xonar (I have a D2X and love it).

Prizes will be sorted through the BT / CPC guys I'd expect

 

In a ideal world an Essence STX would be my cheesecake as it would be ideal for my hd650's but whichever model, its going in my Mod, was just gonna use onboard til my budget allowed me to buy an STX and as its a media pc onboard wouldnt be ideal.. now if only Asus made 850w PSUs

Thanks again VK, thats made my day

 

Actually, we do make PSU's, we just don't sell them in the UK =)

 

You should really try and get that changed. ASUS has such a good reputation in the self-build community so quality PSUs from ASUS would do well. I've read some reviews of older ASUS PSUs and they seem to be quite well made.

 

Yeah, after a little googling it seems thaty they fare pretty well under review, sorta feeling a little left out.

 

Did we already send out addresses to BT for the competition, I can't remember if I did.

I'm assuming once the prizes are confirmed a PM/email will go out?

 

Yeah, we have addresses - will be in touch re prizes.

 

I'm getting giddy, already! New toy! New toy!

Shiny thing? Where!?

 

Hello bit-tech/asus... I'm going to be purchasing a CPU for the sabertooth, it ready for i3 or i5 6series??
